  • the compounds of the formula (I) and the pharmaceutically usable salts thereof have inhibiting action on the natural enzyme renin.
  • the latter passes from the kidneys into the blood and there brings about the cleavage of angiotensinogen to form the decapeptide angiotensin I which is then cleaved in the lung, the kidneys and other organs to the octapeptide angiotensin II.
  • Angiotensin II increases the blood pressure both directly by arterial constriction and indirectly by the release of the hormone aldosterone which inhibits the release of the sodium ion from the adrenal glands, which is associated with a rise in the extracellular liquid volume.
  • This rise can be attributed to the action of angiotensin II itself or of the heptapeptide angiotensin III formed therefrom as a cleavage product.
  • Inhibitors of the enzymatic activity of renin bring about a reduction in the formation of angiotensin I and, as a consequence thereof, the formation of a smaller amount of angiotensin II.
  • the reduced concentration of this active peptide hormone is the immediate cause of the hypotensive action of renin inhibitors.
  • One experimental method of detecting the action of renin inhibitors is by means of in vitro tests, in which the reduction of the formation of angiotensin I in different systems (human plasma, purified human renin together with synthetic or natural renin substrate) is measured.
  • One in vitro test which is used is the one according to Nussberger et al. (1987) J. Cardiovascular Pharmacol., Vol. 9, p. 39-44 which follows. This test measures the formation of angiotensin I in human plasma. The amount of angiotensin I formed is determined in a subsequent radioimmunoassay.

Depending on the presence of asymmetric carbon atoms, the inventive compounds may be in the form of isomer mixtures, especially as racemates, or in the form of pure isomers, especially of optical antipodes.
Salts of compounds having salt-forming groups are in particular acid addition salts, salts with bases or, in the presence of a plurality of salt-forming groups, in some cases also mixed salts or internal salts.
Salts are primarily the pharmaceutically usable or nontoxic salts of compounds of the formula (I).
Such salts are formed, for example, from compounds of the formula (I) with an acidic group, for example a carboxyl or sulpho group, and are, for example, the salts thereof with suitable bases, such as nontoxic metal salts derived from metals of group la, lb, lla and lib of the Periodic Table of the Elements, for example alkali metal, in particular lithium, sodium or potassium salts, alkaline earth metal salts, for example magnesium or calcium salts, and also zinc salts or ammonium salts, including those salts which are formed with organic amines, such as optionally hydroxy-substituted mono-, di- or trialkylamines, in particular mono-, di- or tri(lower alkyl)amines, or with quaternary ammonium bases, for example methyl-, ethyl-, diethyl- ortriethylamine, mono-, bis- or tris(2-hydroxy(lower alkyl))amines, such as ethanol-, diethanol- or triethanolamine, tris(hydroxymethyl)methylamine or 2-hydroxy-tert-butylamine, N,N-di(lower alkyl)-N-(hydroxy(lower alkyl))amines, such as N,N-dimethyl-N-(2-hydroxy- ethyl)amine, or N-methyl-D-glucamine, or quaternary ammonium hydroxides, such as tetra- butylammonium hydroxide. The compounds of the formula (I) having a basic group, for example an amino group, may form acid addition salts, for example with suitable inorganic acids, e.g. hydrohalic acid such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulphuric acid with replacement of one or both protons, phosphoric acid with replacement of one or more protons, e.g. orthophosphoric acid or metaphosphoric acid, or pyrophosphoric acid with replacement of one or more protons, or with organic carboxylic, sulphonic, sulpho or phosphonic acids or N-substituted sulphamic acids, e.g. acetic acid, propionic acid, glycolic acid, succinic acid, maleic acid, hydroxymaleic acid, methylmaleic acid, fumaric acid, malic acid, tartaric acid, gluconic acid, glucaric acid, glucuronic acid, citric acid, benzoic acid, cinnamic acid, mandelic acid, salicylic acid, 4-aminosalicylic acid, 2-phenoxybenzoic acid, 2-acetoxybenzoic acid, embonic acid, nicotinic acid, isonicotinic acid, and also amino acids, for example the α-amino acids mentioned above, and also methanesulphonic acid, ethanesulphonic acid, 2-hydroxyethanesulphonic acid, ethane-1,2-disulphonic acid, benzenesulphonic acid, 4-toluenesulphonic acid, naphthalene-2-sulphonic acid, 2- or 3-phosphoglycerate, glucose-6-phosphate, N-cyclohexylsulphamic acid (with formation of cyclamates) or with other acidic organic compounds such as ascorbic acid. Compounds of the formula (I) with acidic and basic groups may also form internal salts.
For the isolation and purification, pharmaceutically unsuitable salts may also find use.
The compounds of the formula (I) and the pharmaceutically usable salts thereof, have inhibiting action on the natural enzyme renin. The latter passes from the kidneys into the blood and there brings about the cleavage of angiotensinogen to form the decapeptide angiotensin I which is then cleaved in the lung, the kidneys and other organs to the octapeptide angiotensin II. Angiotensin II increases the blood pressure both directly by arterial constriction and indirectly by the release of the hormone aldosterone which inhibits the release of the sodium ion from the adrenal glands, which is associated with a rise in the extracellular liquid volume. This rise can be attributed to the action of angiotensin II itself or of the heptapeptide angiotensin III formed therefrom as a cleavage product. Inhibitors of the enzymatic activity of renin bring about a reduction in the formation of angiotensin I and, as a consequence thereof, the formation of a smaller amount of angiotensin II. The reduced concentration of this active peptide hormone is the immediate cause of the hypotensive action of renin inhibitors.
One experimental method of detecting the action of renin inhibitors is by means of in vitro tests, in which the reduction of the formation of angiotensin I in different systems (human plasma, purified human renin together with synthetic or natural renin substrate) is measured. One in vitro test which is used is the one according to Nussberger et al. (1987) J. Cardiovascular Pharmacol., Vol. 9, p. 39-44 which follows. This test measures the formation of angiotensin I in human plasma. The amount of angiotensin I formed is determined in a subsequent radioimmunoassay. Which action inhibitors have on the formation of angiotensin I is tested in this system by the addition of different concentrations of these substances. The IC50 refers to that concentration of the particular inhibitor which reduces the formation of angiotensin I by 50%. The compounds of the present invention exhibit inhibiting actions in the in vitro systems at minimum concentrations of about 10"3 to about 10"10 mol/l.
In salt-depleted animals, renin inhibitors bring about a blood pressure decrease. Human renin differs from renin of other species. To test inhibitors of human renin, primates (marmosets, Callithrixjacchus) are used, because human renin and primate renin are substantially homologous in the enzymatically active region. One in vivo test which is used is as follows: the test compounds are tested on normotensive marmosets of both genders and having a body weight of about 350 g which are conscious, able to move freely and in their normal cages. Blood pressure and heart rate are measured using a catheter in the descending aorta and recorded radiometrically. The endogenous release of renin is stimulated by the combination of a 1-week low-salt diet with a single intra-muscular injection of furosemide (5-(aminosulphonyl)-4-chloro-2-[(2-furanylmethyl)amino]benzoic acid) (5 mg/kg). 16 hours after the injection of furosemide, the test substances are administered either directly into the femoral artery by means of an injection cannula or into the stomach by gavage as a suspension or solution, and their effect on blood pressure and heart rate is evaluated. The compounds of the present invention effectively reduce blood pressure in the in vivo test described at doses of about 0.003 to about 0.3 mg/kg i.v. and at doses of about 0.3 to about 30 mg/kg p.o.
The compounds of the present invention may find use for the treatment of hypertension, congestive heart failure, cardiac hypertrophy, cardiac fibrosis, cardiomyopathy postinfarction, complications resulting from diabetes, such as nephropathy, vasculopathy and neuropathy, disorders of the cardiac vessel, restenosis after angioplasty, increased intraocular pressure, glaucoma, abnormal vascular growth, hyperaldosteronism, states of anxiety and cognitive disorders.

Figure imgf000022_0001
where one R5 substituent is hydrogen and the remaining substituents are each as defined above including the preferences specified, and pharmaceutically usable salts thereof.
The compounds of the formula (I) may also be prepared in optically pure form. The separation into antipodes may be effected by methods known per se, either preferably at a synthetically early stage by salt formation with an optically active acid, for example (+)- or (-)-mandelic acid and separation of the diastereomeric salts by fractional crystallization, or preferably at a rather later stage by derivatization with a chiral auxiliary building block, for example (+)- or (-)-camphanoyl chloride, and separation of the diastereomeric products by chromatography and/or crystallization and subsequent cleavage of the bond to the chiral auxiliary. To determine the absolute configuration of the piperidine present, the pure diastereomeric salts and derivatives may be analysed with common spectroscopic methods, of which X-ray spectroscopy on single crystals constitutes a particularly suitable method.
Prodrug derivatives of the compounds described in the present context are derivatives thereof which, on in vivo application, release the original compound by a chemical or physiological process. A prodrug may be converted to the original compound, for example, when a physiological pH is attained or by enzymatic conversion. Prodrug derivatives may, for example, be esters of freely available carboxylic acids, S- and O-acyl derivatives of thiols, alcohols or phenols, and the acyl group is as defined in the present context. Preference is given to pharmaceutically usable ester derivatives which are converted by solvolysis in physiological medium to the original carboxylic acid, for example lower alkyl esters, cycloalkyl esters, lower alkenyl esters, benzyl esters, mono- ordisubstituted lower alkyl esters such as lower oo-(amino, mono- or dialkylamino, carboxyl, lower alkoxycarbonyl)-alkyl esters or such as lower α-(alkanoyloxy, alkoxycarbonyl or dialkylaminocarbonyl)-alkyl esters; as such, pivaloyloxymethyl esters and similar esters are utilized in a conventional manner.
Owing to the close relationship between a free compound, a prodrug derivative and a salt compound, a certain compound in this invention also encompasses its prodrug derivative and salt form, where this is possible and appropriate. The compounds of the formula (I) or formula (la) also include those compounds in which one or more atoms are replaced by their stable, non-radioactive isotopes; for example, a hydrogen atom by deuterium.
The compounds of the formula (I) or formula (la), and the pharmaceutically usable salts thereof, may find use as medicines, for example in the form of pharmaceutical preparations. The pharmaceutical preparations may be administered enterally, such as orally, for example in the form of tablets, coated tablets, sugar-coated tablets, hard and soft gelatin capsules, solutions, emulsions or suspensions, nasally, for example in the form of nasal sprays, rectally, for example in the form of suppositories, or transdermally, for example in the form of ointments or patches.
